Incredible Dream Home in Portugal | S4/E4

[@thelastpirate]

Hello my beautiful people! Thanks for watching our video. Let us know what you think of Ye Old Sawmill! And please *Like* this (it helps us out a ton!). Much love from Ana, James, and Luna!

[@dennispatrick4999]

Go for it. Luna needs to be water safe asap. Huge remodel; but why not?

[@m4a4c4]

I love it! Is it for sale? I am interested

[@claussvensson8670]

Forget it. You will never be able to get anything livable out of this.

[@MrChrisGrieve]

Do it! Hydroelectric setup all the way.

[@Dabodizafa]

Looks like you have plenty of room for the wife and I to visit with all 4 of our kids too. 💯🔥

[@ChrisHarding-lk3jj]

I can imagine turning that place into a home, I have past experience with turning unconventional proeprties into homes. The water flow is an asset, you could generate a massive amount of electricity using a modern turbine generator setup. The actual sawmill cutting area would make an awsome room, I would cover up the pockets in the floor using polycarbonate so you can see the old pulleys and shafts.

[@oz-ska-fest4580]

I love it , All that power of the water . Hydro power etc and the buildings have some much potential

[@markparker2672]

That place has loads of potential!

[@johngmcd3]

Amazing place, I hope you for it. I have loved your sailing videos and I'm sure I will enjoy watching the 3 of you transform this into a one of a kind home,

[@MrJerobona]

That is an amazing property! There is that structure to make the comfy home easy and cheap, then all the rest to transform into a bigger home, rb&b or b&b! Looks great, full of potential!

[@3AdamAnt]

Amazing place! Such and adventure! Imagine how much electricity you could generate with what they already have in place…. Super cool and am excited to see more!

[@ae7v]

Nice place.

[@lesnicholson3578]

Go for it!

[@Morrisfactor]

Wow, James - looks like an amazing place - with so many options to finish it out! The only thing that would worry me might be the ways little ones could fall (but then, that applied to your boat too).

[@luccirino5451]

It's a miracle... another miracle... There a lot of them in this world... I hope you can find one in Portugal... It's clear like water that you've done the right choice coming to Portugal! A Life to live near the sea... Have a fantastic dream for your family! Strong Hugs... 💪🤘

[@Tim8mit]

wow just as beautiful as the first one......James you are doing well to find two great places....hola Ana y Luna...cheers

[@irish_ladd4]

It looks so cool. You could do a lot with that place.

[@Irbdude]

If there’s room on the land start with a Yurt…but yes I love it. I too am looking at Portugal.

[@schnell356]

Of course there is lots of hydro power potential but it would take a lot of work, the place is very kid-unfriendly and being in a gully, there's no sailboat-quality sunsets to enjoy. It's probably a balance between initial and repair costs but it looks like a place with non-stop repairs, kind of like a sailboat. I'd keep looking.

[@t590-j3z]

looks cool loads of room , big garage to tinker away

[@phandly1]

Putting the like!

O M GAWD.. If i was looking and had the money, id buy that place in a heart beat... Potential is Enormous ..

[@brevardfencecompany]

That’s pretty cool definitely could build a sailboat in that saw mill

[@todddiggan68]

you are the cutest lil family god bless you all peace be with you

[@johnmajewski1065]

Stunning congratulations on the beautiful find great potential in everything you can imagine. Important Question how far is it from shopping and health services?

[@dennispatrick4999]

Hydro power and Fresh water. Go for it.

[@ctown6971]

Nice get the saw mill back up an running. I love watching those channels.

[@drifter20041]

Its beautiful! As a retired technitian my first thought was, a generator where the paddle wheel used to be and you have free electric for life! (My dream, lol) My concern? What is your leagal liability for the dam. Should it break, what happens below and who's responsible for any damages Best of luck guys! It is awesome!

[@scotttan6377]

Because it was a commercial property , might be worth having the water and soil test for chemicals and bio-hazards.

[@stillamsyeu]

Absolutely, esepcially with a kid onboard who will be down in the dirt and generally more vulnerable to things like lead/arsenic.

[@kappa2ou3]

I think it was a sawmill !!!

[@paulrust2997]

Love it, you could do so much there

[@andresilvasophisma]

It looks great, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.

[@kroome8]

cool place... very nice...

[@kimamtenmyr5808]

Buy it !!!!!

[@Aformiguinha]

im sure you could do hydro power

[@MachTuck]

Very cool place! Best wishes!

[@jbird73]

I work at a mill, so of course I love it!!!

[@lazzj4995]

That was cool. The sound of water is fun but not sure if I would want to hear it 24x7

[@YZ250ama]

Awesome place. I wouldn't remove anything, just work it all into whatever you do.

[@docjeffry]

Looks live your next adventure. Please promise you will restore the water mill to make electricity. Also, original plans if you can find them would be dandy. Best of luck!

[@davidfinley14]

Great property!!! If you do get it I know a retired civil engineer who is currently living there and he would fall in love with it also. But I'm sure he would be happy to help you if needed on complicated projects.

[@jjt999]

Hi is here room for the vegetable garden I think it is great the sound of the water 💧

[@StevenDiPietroBeerParty]

I'd love to incorporate that Rock formation right into my living room wall, with a screened in porch overlooking the river below on the opposite wall

[@bethlef5168]

Amazing!!

[@ericbergdahl6971]

That is a cool property you could do so much with. I would check into recreating the saw mill powered by the belts. I would also add hydro power from the water. I think the stairs were just leaning where you climbed up. Check out the water and soil to see if it is safe for you and your family. Dumping was common and can cause problems for all kinds of things down stream for water and Environmental on the soil. If that comes out clean then check out to further.

[@Island_Times]

Absolutely stunning mate ! Could use the water to generate your own 24/7 power with little need for batteries .

[@QBandBookingKC]

Follow your heart.

[@StreetTruckinTitan]

Cool old sawmill. Could be very cool retreat with a lot of money invested. It would also be a nightmare with a little one running around with all that enticing water.

[@svtinker]

Like living on a sailboat?

[@StreetTruckinTitan]

@@svtinker yep

[@JamesOtoole-e2b]

Hello from Australia 🦘. U guys Rock.😁

[@Paulookingatyou]

Bem vindo a Portugal 😊

[@mikemcauliffe4786]

This is amazing! Do your due diligence find out why it hasn’t been sold in a while. If you get all you harbor lights to line up go for it!

[@tom_flew]

You could make a slide run for the waterfall to quieten it down if needs be

[@patrickjames1080]

Brilllllliant ⛵️

[@tonyrhoton6613]

B cool find someone know history of that place when it was working very cool place zingaro.

[@louis220558]

It looks amazing I can picture already a lot of things in my mind What you are gonna do with it

[@kenwilkes44]

good stuff

[@obg6467]

Looks like could raise trout there and have a private fly fishing park 😁

[@26N80W]

Put a glass floor over the mechanicals in the floor with indirect lighting. Love it. Infinite free off grid energy. You could a run crypto mining operation with all that free power.

[@geofferyrobertson6608]

fair bit to tidy up on the outside but worth the effort

[@alansmith2063]

Running water = free power all day and all night! Way better than solar!!

[@Hugo_Rocker]

That place is cool! You could wear something other than flip/flops when you are exploring ! 😉

[@americanbornwalkaway9110]

PUT the LIKE😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 LOVE that PLACE!!!! OMG the DAM

[@alwayssummerrochambeau]

Hi James, get this property. Tons of opportunities to develop it. Teach the little one how to swim and you will be golden. Cheers from Panama. Your flag is still ip at Ibin’s next to ours.😊

[@gigstrail7180]

Keep little one on short leash

[@frankpristov9745]

It's better than last one, a water wheel to drive a generator would be a do able thing

[@Charlie-Oooooo]

Hey yall !i!i! Just recently subscribed. Very cool potential home! What's with the stone bridge on the other side of the mill? Traffic? Also, of course, def find a good civil engineer to evaluate condition of buildings, cliff, and most important: what it will take to strengthen the dam! And what is peak water level. Good luck!

[@judybiddulph2164]

I just see work, work, work, and never ending work and a lot of money to get up and running, then comes the maintenance. Been there, done that, now all I want is a small piece of manageable land, small cozy house, rigged out with best, so I have a home base and be free to sail and explore.

[@larryhills2478]

James I am late posting this so I hope you see it, I would look up Mr and Mrs Adventure on KZbin they bought a watermill in Portugal, I am not sure where but they are presently converting it, when the first moved there it was completely overgrown but they hired a guy with a excavator to start clearing and what the discovered is amazing but if you can get in touch with them they can give you some insights to the pitfalls, Good Luck

[@christopheriden222]

What a amazing place Super ideal for electric Water wheel turbine

[@gezac440]

If you can do what you want, pending the govement...GO FOR IT>

[@robertlaird6746]

I like this property much better than last weeks property. When you build your house, consider building it like RR Buildings builds his buildings. Look at his Dream Shop Build on KZbin. That's the way to do it for the best bang for the money and have something supper nice! How many acres come with this property, is that flat land above the metal staircase part of the land and would you be able to build on it? I like it for the water and because the structure looks like it has a solid foundation. Question is, can you improve it without much red tape from the government?

[@robftzptr4438]

That "parking lot" is made for temporary housing while you build your new home. Massive potential.

[@andredeweisse216]

Amazing Sawmill !! Imagine you can put a turbine and produce your own electricity ! No bill any more.

[@ivandale-bc]

We walked past and watched a plane land😮

[@firstlast1047]

James, Anna wants a house that requires the absolutely minimum of rehab. Purchasing appliances and furniture is the extent of her "perfect" house. "Her" daughter, unbeknownst to you, is her primary concern. Obviously, to you, every project is another Zingaro. The first Zingaro, I suggested a complete refit. Unfortunately a lack of funds truncated a viable refit. Zingaro slowly fell apart. Now, you are enthralled with land property, that will be underfunded.

[@PeterAcrat]

💯

[@peter-michaelkeys.2522]

I Agree......solid relationships have both people on the same page to build a home......Happy Wife is a Happy Life!

[@onedisasterattatime9116]

BUY IT....your own power grid just waiting for you.....

[@jimwilder5578]

The mill is just not enough land it looks like it's all hillside..

[@arqcm]

Hi James! where is this place located in Portugal?

[@ivandale-bc]

Consider the rules and remember, they can honestly be bent. Go for it 👍. I would love to buy a place like that. A restaurant would be great, but.... would you have customers?

[@DriftaholiC]

Could have some diy hydro electric.

[@hoonbuilt5407]

I'd come help you turn that place into something even more awesome just let me know when mate

[@rossalyntownsend9535]

Sorry not snuff outside space, I’m just being honest, and thinking of the hole family ❤

[@dougklettke8833]

🍾😊🍾

[@robertmills5296]

Your own hydro power, no power bills or even sell some power.

[@stevecrombie5357]

With a big enough lithium battery bank and the available water for generating electricity you would be set. Totally off grid. Is Ana ready for a project this size? 😬

[@livinglifegrigg4927]

How much for something like that in Portugal ?

[@Keepingittocool]

Perfect opportunity for hydroelectric

[@YZ250ama]

Careful those metal stairs might just be scrap storage? Along side the other block materials.

[@geofferyrobertson6608]

bet you miss the Yacht

[@MarkSeymour-g7o]

Its stunning, just lots of places to fall and break your neck. Be careful

[@Day_Tripper39]

Please get the water tested before you do anything else. There may be dangerous chemicals that could cause cancer. I would hat to see any of you get sick and go in the hospital.

[@noname-t2o8y]

there will be too cold and raining in the winter.

[@melinda5777]

I'm Super Pumped for US!!! I'm to old to buy a sailboat considering i just gave mine away for Plukkys' contest. But, i am moving to Portugal! I've found one place on the mainland and one place on Terceira! But, I'm not to old to be Nanny for Luna while Daddy and Mommy work!!! Me and Luna can swim all day long!!! We will be jumping from the bridge before you know it!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 No poison Snakes or Gators!😅😅😅 Has this Alabama Lady, scared ya yet?? Luna and i can make veggie gardens! I'm terrific at that!!! YES! GET THAT PROPERTY!!! PORTUGAL IS AWESOME! Have you tried the Alcatra yet? Pastel da Nada? Their Coffee James, is Slap Yo Momma Coffee but if you slap yo Momma, you know shes going to kill you! It's like that Louisiana spice, Slap Yo Mama! But not spicy, just dang good! And i know you like coffee. Some places even serve Sweet Tea!!! LOVE TO ALL!!! ✝️🙏❤🇺🇸⛵👣☘🍍🍍🍍🤗🍼🍼🎶🎶🌻🌻🇵🇹

[@JeffSenkbeil]

If everything checks out please do it James you only live once

[@peter-michaelkeys.2522]

You might love it James but Ana might not so make sure she really wants to do a lot of real hard work especially with your little sweetheart growing.......this place doesn't look very toddler friendly !

[@james-xs3yt]

Dont jump to quick

[@onemanandhisdog9]

Awsome project potenial, place to raise a family......... sorry, no, you'd have to be more alert to where kids are and what they are doing than on a boat!

[@GunShot101]

Better flat land with warter better for farming frut trees and meat anamels

[@rocket262626]

Good way to get a divorce.

[@geofferyrobertson6608]

can you own land in Portugal being a foreigner ? or can your wife own it ?

[@joeldelamirande5792]

Money maker to you

[@hankeleerink2286]

Stunning place, but hard to make a child friendly home for your young family. Not to mention the money that will go in this project! Would not do this. There must be better ones that suit both you and the family better. But, if everyone is over the moon about it, do it!

[@Beyond-Horizons-]

Maybe to big ..

[@Terry49]

Too big of a project I say don’t

[@maartenvanrossen6138]

This will be a huge project. There is a real danger that it is just a too big of a project. I would go for a smaller project, especially with a young family. On the plus side the roofs of the buildings look good. Don’t buy anything if the roof is not good.

[@gigstrail7180]

Biggest money pit I've seen in a while....let alone safety issues out the Ying Yang. Great to see, nice to visit. Leave and come back later......ALOT OF ENDLESS WORK. If you like it though...buy it.
